I own a digital agency where we’ve created several automation workflows using platforms like Make, n8n, and Zapier. These include things like automated customer screening, smart email replies, client setup sequences, and similar processes.
Our internal results have been great, and now some of our clients want access to these same automations. My goal is to package these as standalone products where users can link their existing tools (Gmail, Slack, etc.), enter basic information like company details or specific requirements, and activate the workflow.
Here are my main challenges:
I need to keep the underlying prompts and business logic hidden
I don’t want to code a completely new interface from scratch
I want to implement subscription pricing (maybe $10 monthly) for ongoing access
Has anyone found a good way to commercialize no-code automation workflows without having to build a full custom application? I’m looking for a solution that can package and sell these flows in a professional way.
Try Tally or Typeform for the client side, then connect them to white-label automation platforms. I’ve been selling packaged workflows for six months - custom intake forms that feed straight into Make or n8n work great. Use webhooks so clients never see your automation backend. Gumroad handles subscriptions and connects to most form builders through Zapier. My conversion rates shot up after I added a free tier with one workflow, then upsold to premium. Takes a weekend to set up, but it’s basically hands-off after that. Clients want consistent results more than flashy interfaces, so keep it simple.
white-label your workflows through pabbly or integromat’s partner program. i’ve seen agencies wrap automations in simple landing pages with embedded forms that trigger backend flows. stripe handles recurring payments seamlessly. make clients feel they’re getting a premium product even though it’s your internal stuff repackaged. $10 is too low - i charge $29 minimum.
Transitioning from internal automations to client products can be challenging, but I found success using Bubble as a front-end wrapper for existing workflows. Create simple forms in Bubble to gather client information and trigger workflows in Make or n8n via webhooks, which helps maintain the confidentiality of your internal logic. For subscriptions, integrating Stripe into Bubble streamlined billing. I’ve learned that clients prioritize results over complexity, so I focus on user-friendly forms and dashboards instead of exposing intricate details. It took about two weeks to refine this approach, but now it’s scalable for other automation products, leading to stable monthly recurring revenue.
